As it turns out, the latest set-top-box packs a lot of goodies, including a 64-bit A8 processor and 2GB of RAM. Under the hood iFixit discovered that Apple has packed a custom memory controller into the Apple TV, the component familiar from the2015 Retina MacBook.

Finally, iFixit gave the Apple TV 4 a repairability score of 8 out of 10, with 10 being the most repairable, because the latest set-top-box has a modular construction and only a few major components, thus simplifying matters.
